Astronaut Safe Temporary Ride Options Act

Floor Speech

Date: May 6, 2024
Location: Washington, DC


The ASTRO Act would give the Administrator of NASA the authority to allow astronauts returning from space to receive home-to-work transportation from the agency. Such transportation is currently permitted only on a case-by-case basis, and it must be reported to Congress. This bill also requires NASA to report annually to Congress on the use of this authority.

These seem like reasonable changes to me, and I support this bill.

Ms. NORTON. Mr. Speaker, I urge Members to support this bill, and I yield back the balance of my time.
